Great harness for new climbers

I bought this harness after getting into climbing for the first time, and it's fantastic. It's so comfortable that I forget I'm wearing it! Great padding on the leg loops and around the waist. I'm 5'9" and wear a size 6 in pants, and went with the Medium which fits perfectly and still has plenty of room to adjust. Highly recommend!

This harness works, but not very comfortable compared to my previous Primrose style that I had for over 10 years. Was told that the Primrose was discontinued but this one would be the same. (NOT SO) Doesn't have near as much comfortable padding. Wish the Black Diamond people would bring back the Primrose specs!

Great for beginner

7 years ago

Purchased this after having TONS of fun indoor rock climbing. This harness is very comfortable and easy to adjust around the body. Legs loops are also adjustable, if needed. Comfortable and stable for belaying as well. I have not used it outdoors yet, but if you're looking for something indoors this is likely a solid option (newbie stating this haha, but I've seen a couple of ladies sporting these at the gym).

Great starter harness

7 years ago

Bought this harness for my daughter who has been into climbing. I tried several others in the XS size and this one was the most comfortable and gave her room to grow with it so it'll last. On her first outing with it (2 hours at the rock gym) she had no complaints and said it still fit comfortably. Adjustments are simple and we did not have to tune it much once she got climbing. I can't speak for an adult, but for a kid that is into climbing enough to get away from rental gear, this is a good choice.

Great first harness

6 years ago

Pretty comfortable harness at an affordable price. For size reference, I am 5'6" and 115 lbs and purchased a size small. I wish I could make the harness a bit tighter around my waist but the extra small did not fit as I have wide hips. Other than that, no complaints.

Such a comfortable harness!

7 years ago

I got this harness as I am going to be getting into trad climbing and needed significantly more gear loops than my edilreid has. I love it!! It’s so comfortable and I can wear it for a full day without even really noticing it. Would recommend.

New Climber

I have used this harnes about a half dozen times over the last month or two. I have only just started climbing, so I have been practicing both climbing and belaying in the local gym. The harness is very secure and comfortable for both.

First Harness

Just getting into climbing and got this harness, it has worked perfectly thus far and I have used it many times in a gym and just took it outdoors for the first time. Comfortable and so far has held up well.

Not for all day climbing

5 years ago

I had to return this one. It has metal buckles that dug into my inner thighs on a challenging crag. No matter how I adjusted it, it dug into me while hanging, rappelling and belaying. It even left marks on me. The buckles are just located in a spot that you will feel no matter how much you loosen the legs. This may be ok for a few hours (possibly gym use only) but definitely not ok for long climbs. I think this may be the only black diamond harness with this flaw.
